Written by Mrs Bach
Did Mrs Bach write some of our greatest musical works? It's not often that one of the world's greatest composers is accused of plagiarising his wife's work, but an Australian musical expert has cast doubt on whether Johann Sebastian Bach wrote all his own material. Conductor Martin Jarvis believes Bach's cello suites were composed by the German musician's second wife, Anna Magdalena Bach (1701-60). He takes us on an intriguing journey of speculation and discovery to uncover the truth and rewrite some musical wrongs. When ABC 'AM' broke the story, it was wired all around the world and created a sensation in music circles. Category: MUSIC / BIOGRAPHY
Broadway Jeeves
In 2001 Martin Jarvis played the eponymous role in the American production of Alan Ayckbourns' and Andrew Lloyd Webbers' musical Wodehouse adaptation, By Jeeves. This is the diary he kept of that tour; a study of triumphs, failures and mindbending chaos as cast and crew ambitiously attempt to steer the production from the snows of Pittsburgh to the glory of the 'Great White Way', arriving on Broadway to coincide with the horrific events of 9/11. Packed with theatrical anecdotes, gossip and Jarvis' wry observations on culture shock and the theatre world, Broadway, Jeeves? is a heady mixture of comedy and drama. It is a revealing peek behind the scenes of a major Broadway production, and into the psychology of the people who desperately tried to keep it afloat.

The Historian
The record-breaking phenomenon from Elizabeth Kostova is a celebrated masterpiece that "refashioned the vampire myth into a compelling contemporary novel, a late-night page-turner" (San Francisco Chronicle). Breathtakingly suspenseful and beautifully written, The Historian is the story of a young woman plunged into a labyrinth where the secrets of her family’s past connect to an inconceivable evil: the dark fifteenth-century reign of Vlad the Impaler and a time-defying pact that may have kept his awful work alive through the ages. The search for the truth becomes an adventure of monumental proportions, taking us from monasteries and dusty libraries to the capitals of Eastern Europe—in a feat of storytelling so rich, so hypnotic, so exciting that it has enthralled readers around the world. “Part thriller, part history, part romance...Kostova has a keen sense of storytelling and she has a marvelous tale to tell.” —Baltimore Sun
